Abstract
In this paper, Collini's argument begins to realize the importance between schools of thought in the 19th century definition of the "idealist" that are brought forth in his article. What is often the case Collini's analysis is the digression of subjective errors in formulating moral thought through the Oxford University, which made no clear attempt at providing an outside or empirical point of view to their findings. Dewey represents a burgeoning Utilitarian revisionist process that allows for a more objective standard for understanding the impact of the individual outside of social norms or institutional (government or university standards) dogma.

From the Paper
"One thing that Rebenich is brave enough to do in this book is to expose Jerome for being a polemist. While this information was already known about him, this book shows the insulting behavior that Jerome directed towards other people by analyzing some of his personal letters. Many other biographers might have taken their own beliefs and own personal opinions of this man and incorporated them into this work, but Rebenich sticks to giving the facts on this issue. Since this angry and insulting person is part of who Jerome was, Rebenich is not out of line with this portrayal. By showing the real man, Rebenich's biography and analysis is very important and can be given more merit than other works on the subject. Rebenich is an authority on this subject and his book should be commended because of the amount of research that went into it and for the fact that it took information that was available and presented Jerome as he truly was. He did not let personal beliefs and opinions get in the way of delivering a truthful account of the saint's life, which an important thing for any biographer to do. Stefan Rebenich is an important figure in the knowledge base of Jerome because of his attention to detail and his willingness to give new theories a try."

Abstract
The paper first discusses how Wendy Martyna, in her article "Beyond the 'He/Man' Approach: The Case for Nonsexist Language," argues for change towards nonsexist language since sexist language and sexist attitudes are closely connected. The paper then contrasts this to Stefan Kanfer's argument in "Sispeak: A Misguided Attempt to Change History" that a society's language will not affect its sexist attitudes. The paper asserts that Kanfer's article demonstrates an author's unwillingness to address an issue seriously. The writer agrees with Martyna that humans' beliefs, traditions, and actions are so deeply rooted in language that they cannot be anything but be affected by it.
From the Paper
"A society's language is one of its most powerful distinctions. In language, a society's history and present are reflected. When the English language is considered, the language that still contains masculine nouns to describe all humans (mankind) or masculine pronouns to substitute people, men and women, it is difficult not to raise questions about English-speaking societies' attitudes towards gender and gender equity.
"The issue of sexism in language is addressed in two relatively dated articles, and the authors of these articles take opposing sides. One, Wendy Martyna, argues for change towards nonsexist language, while the other author, Stefan Kanfer, argues that changing the language is ludicrous, believing that a society's language will not affect its sexist attitudes if they are present."
